Wilson Winery was built on tradition and family—much like its landmark barn anchored to the eastern rim of the legendary Dry Creek Valley. When Ken and Diane Wilson opened the century-old cellar doors, they began to share more than their extraordinary wines, they offer a view into a wine valley's history and a legacy of winemaking.
It was in 1993 when the Wilsons took on the restoration of the old tin barn—once the Chris Fredson Winery—complete with the original redwood vats and tanks. Today this historic barn houses modern stainless steel tanks and a new collection of French and American oak barrels for aging the Wilsons’ Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Syrah and Petite Sirah.
More than a home for Wilson wines, the old tin barn is the homestead for their growing family of boutique wineries they nurture and are proud to call Wilson Artisan Wineries.
We invite you to visit our historic tasting room in the heart of the beautiful Dry Creek Valley, just minutes from downtown Healdsburg.

Tasting Notes:

This well balanced and delicious easy-sipper offers aromas of smoky oak and spicy dark fruit. Beautifully integrated flavors—juicy cherry, rich blackberry, plum, huckleberry, spicy oak and hints of coffee, cola and an orange essence—coupled with the smooth entry and velvety mouth feel make this an irresistible “go-to” wine. You’ll want to “go to” it after work, with dinner, for drinks with friends or when you want to spend a quiet evening with someone special.
